🧠 Why use this tool

Many tools for course authoring are expensive or lock your data into a proprietary web service. This tool removes those barriers. By using an open-source approach, you avoid subscription fees and keep ownership of your intellectual property.

Since the tool supports the Model Context Protocol, it fits into modern workflows. It helps instructional designers bridge the gap between AI-assisted text generation and real-world training requirements. You get the benefit of automation without losing control of your files.

🆘 Troubleshooting common issues

The application fails to open. Ensure you have the latest version of Windows installed. Check your antivirus settings, as some security software blocks programs from unknown publishers. If you trust the source, configure your security settings to allow the program to run.

The output file does not work in my Learning Management System. Verify that your folder structure contains an entry file, usually a file named index.html. Ensure all your assets are in the same folder as the index file. Check that your identifier strings contain letters and numbers only.

The software runs slow. Close other applications that use high amounts of memory, such as video editors or browser tabs with active media. Ensure your hard drive has enough space for temporary file storage.

🛡️ Privacy and self-hosting

This application works without an internet connection once you install it. It does not phone home to report your usage or send your course data to third parties. You are the only person who can access the project folders on your computer. This gives you full compliance with strict data protection requirements for internal corporate training.

📧 Support and community

Open-source projects rely on the work of the community. If you find a bug, document the steps you took to trigger it. Be specific about what happened and what you expected to happen instead. Do not include passwords or personal student data in your reports. You can search the issues page to see if another user reported the same problem. This documentation will help the developers fix the tool for everyone.
